The quarter finals of Teamliquid StarLeague has been a thrilling experience, on day one we witnessed two series of 3-2 victories, and the second day didn't turn out any less exciting when IdrA canceled his command center and left the game.

NonY vs IdrA
Will IdrA cancel buildings and leave the game? That's what we're waiting for
- Artosis during the final game

It's been an amazing weekend of Teamliquid StarLeague, and the last series of the round, IdrA against NonY, the clash of the Americans turned out to be a really exciting series.
IdrA won the first game confidently and everything seemed to go his way. But in the second game he unfortunately canceled the command center instead of the SCV working on it, and didn't even try to get back in the game before he typed out.

The series evolved into a 2-2 set, and the fifth and final game was up. IdrA started out with the same buildorder he did in the second game when the command center was demolished. NonY countered with three gateways, and managed to kill off a lot of siege tanks, and the shocker was a fact. NonY defeated IdrA 3-2.

When Artosis asked NonY about who he would rather meet in the finals, if he manages to get that far, NonY would prefer to meet Sen;

- "I think i have a better chance against sen actually. I have always respected Mondragon and especially his ZvP of course. I think Mondragon is a very clever player and I feel like Sen is more of a mechanical player and I’ll know what I’m getting into if I’m playing Sen and I just need to play my game and outplay him. With Mondragon I feel like he is the kind of guy that might outsmart me so going into a bo7 I like a straight up game with a guy like Sen rather with a guy like Mondragon who is very clever and has the mechanics too and might and have some tricks up his sleeve."

White-Ra vs IefNaij
The series started out in White-Ra's favor, dominating the first game, and winning a mechanical second game, even though IefNaij pulled off some really nice storms, it just wasn't enough to take down the Ukrainian veteran. So far 2-0 for White-Ra, who was looking for a spot in the semi-finals.

The third game however, turned everything around. IefNaij is known for his very good reaver control, and as the third game on Outsider became a reaver-fight game, he really proved the rumors right. His reaver control was too good for White-Ra, and IefNaij won himself a spot back in the game at 2-1 for White-Ra. After the fourth game, the scores were tied, and White-Ra and IefNaij moved on to the fifth and final game for a spot in the semi finals.

The game evolved into a big micro oriented battle outside IefNaij's expansion, where it looked like White-Ra would win after killing IefNaij's defensive reaver, but the battle summarized the series up, and IefNaij turned it around, killed White-Ra's shuttle with the reaver inside and held off the attack, and came out having the upper-hand. Soon thereafter, IefNaij countered and could amazingly see himself turn around a 0-2 set, to 3-2 in his favor.


With the results of the quarter finals, NonY will be taking on IefNaij, and Mondragon versus Sen in the semi finals.
